Creating Dual Active Sites in Ru-doped FeMn-MOF-74 for Efficient Overall Water Splitting.

The design of well-engineered bifunctional electrocatalysts is crucial for achieving durable and efficient performance in overall water splitting. In this study, Ru-doped FeMn-MOF-74 itself has Ru sites and generates FeMnOOH under catalytic conditions, forming dual active sites for overall water splitting. Density functional theory (DFT) calculations demonstrate that the Ru dopants exhibit optimized binding strength for H* and enhanced hydrogen evolution reaction (HER) performance.

Characteristics of Resection Parameters in Robot-Assisted Total Knee Arthroplasty With the Ligament Balancing Workflow.

Objective: Robotic-assisted total knee arthroplasty (TKA) is a novel orthopedic technique. The workflow of robotic-assisted TKA is quite different from that of traditional manual TKA and may result incompletely different resection parameters. Understanding these parameters may help surgeons better perform robotic-assisted TKA.

Case report: Cancer-free survival after chemotherapy, targeted immunotherapy combination with proton therapy following space making technique in a patient with cholangiocarcinoma after choledochal cyst resection.

Choledochal cysts (CCs) are rare cystic dilations of the intrahepatic and/or extrahepatic bile ducts. Malignancies arising during follow-up after excision of CCs have been reported in both children and adults, with no typical time frame for malignancy development. We present a case of a patient diagnosed with CCs 36 years ago, who underwent resection and subsequently developed cancer.

A positive relationship between weight-adjusted waist index and non-alcoholic fatty liver disease: a study on US adolescents.

Background: Non-alcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) is the most prevalent chronic liver condition in children, underscoring the urgent need for non-invasive markers for early detection in this population.

Methods: We utilized survey data from the National Health and Nutrition Examination Survey (NHANES) 2017-2020 regarding liver ultrasound transient elastography (LUTE) for the diagnosis of NAFLD (dependent variable), and used multiple logistic regression models to explore the association between weight-adjusted waist circumference index (WWI) and the prevalence of NAFLD in US adolescents. Smoothing curves and threshold effect analyses were used to assess the non-linear association between the independent variables and the dependent variable.

NaHS modulates astrocytic EAAT2 expression to impact SNI-induced neuropathic pain and depressive-like behaviors.

The potential role of hydrogen sulfide (HS) in the modulation of neuropathic pain is increasingly recognized. This study investigated the therapeutic effect of intraperitoneal injection of the HS donor sodium hydrosulfide (NaHS) on neuropathic pain. Utilizing the spared nerve injury (SNI) model in mice, the research investigates the role of astrocytes and the excitatory neurotransmitter glutamate in chronic pain.
